The umbilical system used for launch vehicle is to connect all ground supply lines (Pneumatic, hydraulic and electrical) to launch vehicle and disconnect those at few second before launch vehicle lift-off (or simultaneously with launch vehicle lift-off). During launch preparation stage, all umbilical shall be securely connected and also at separation stage, separation of all umbilical line shall be guaranteed. Therefore finding an appropriate connection force is a key factor on development of umbilical system. According to these design requirement, various kind of umbilical system has been developed from early stage of space development till today. In this paper, various kind of umbilical system developed so far is introduced according to its feature and operational concept. Also, umbilical system used for KSLV-II is introduced

A constant desire has been to fabricate nanopatterns for biochip and the Ultraviolet-nano imprint lithography (UV-NIL) is promising technology especially compared with thermal type in view of cost effectiveness. By using this method, nano-scale to micro-scale structures also called nanopore structures can be fabricated on large scale gold plate at normal conditions such as room temperature or low pressure which is not possible in thermal type lithography. One of the most important methods in fabricating biochips, immobilizing, was processed successfully by using this technology. That means immobilizing proteins only on the nanopore structures based on gold, not on hardened resin by UV is now possible by utilizing this method. So this selective nano-patterning process of protein can be useful method fabricating nanoscale protein chip.

An automobile hot-film air flow sensor is deposited with platinum by sputtering method, patterned by photoresisted lift-off method, annealed in $1,000^{\circ}C$ and passivated with PI-2723. The TCR of the fabricated hot-film is about $3500\;ppm/^{\circ}C$. In the experiment, the output voltage of the sensor is in proportional to the fourth power root in the air mass flow range of 300 kg/h. The error in the full flow range is about ${\pm}0.7%$. In the range of air temperature of $-20^{\circ}C{\sim}120^{\circ}C$, the error is about ${\pm}1%$ that is ${\pm}2%$ lower than that of the reference sensor. Therefore, the fabricated hot-film air flow sensor satisfies the specification for automobile. Lower temperature error of the sensor provides to control the precise air/fuel ratio of automobile engine and results in improvement of a fuel mileage and the less amount of toxic gases emitted by automobile.

PVC membrane, which has been used for membrane of electrolyte sensors, shortened sensor lifetime due to poor adhesion to sensor surface and exhibited difficulty in standardization and mass-production. To overcome these problems, the membrane solution was prepared with neutral carrier, matrix(TEOS:DEDMS=1:3), solvent(ethanol), and a catalyzer(HCl). The fabricated electrolyte sensors showed typical electrical characteristics of MISFET (metal-insulator-semiconductor field-effect transistor). The K-, Ca- and Na-ISFETs showed sensitivity of 53, 25 and 50 mV/decade in wide concentration range, respectively. The response time was about 90 seconds and the drift was 0.05mV/hour. These results suggest that the sol-gel method and the lift-off technique can be applied to formation of membranes and expected to improve mass-productivity, standardzation of the sensors.

Industrialized and modular construction is a growing construction technique that can transfer a large portion of the construction process to off-site fabrication yards. This method of construction often involves the fabrication, pre-assembly, and transportation of massive and long volumetric modules. The module weight keeps increasing as the modules become more complete (with infill) to minimize the work at the site and, as higher productivity can be achieved at the fabrication shop. Thus, a volumetric module delivery gets more challenging and risky. Despite its importance, past research paid relatively insufficient attention to the problem related to the lifting of heavy modules. This can be a complex and time-consuming problem with multiple lifting for transportation-and-installation operations both in fabrication yard and jobsite, and require complex crane operations (sometimes, more than one crane) due to crane load capacity and load balance/stability. This study investigates this problem by focusing on the structural perspective of lifting such long volumetric modules through simulation studies. Various scenarios of lifting a weighty module from the top using four lifting cables attached to crane hooks (either a single crane or double crane) are simulated in SAP software. The simulations account for various factors pertaining to structural indices, e.g., bending stress and deflection, to identify a proper method of module lifting from a structural point of view. The method can identify differences in structural indices allowing identification of structural efficiency and safety levels during lifting, which further allows the selection of the number of cranes and location of lifting points.

We studied on possibility of the application of photolithography technique to patterning the organic active layer poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT). In the case of selective etching method, we made thin oxide film on P3HT thin film using $O_2$ treatment. We achieved the field-effect mobilities in the saturation regime ${\sim}1.2{\times}10^{-3}\;cm^2/V{\cdot}s$, $I_{on/off}$ ratios ${\sim}10^5$ in the selective etching method, ${\sim}7.4{\times}10^{-4}cm^2/V{\cdot}s$, $I_{on/off}$ ratios ${\sim}5{\times}10^3$ in the lift-off one. These values are higher than ones of the unpatterned P3HT-based OTFTs. On the basis of the above results, we demonstrate the photolithographic patterning for P3HT active layer is successfully carried out without degradation of P3HT.

We present a novel process to fabricate three-dimensional (3D) metallic patterns from 3D printed polymeric structures utilizing different hygroscopic swelling behavior of two different polymeric materials. 3D patterns are printed with two different polymers as cube shape. The surface of the 3D printed polymeric structures is plated with nickel by an electroless plating method. The nickel patterns on the surface of the 3D printed cube shape structure are formed by removing sacrificial layers using the difference in the rate of hygroscopic swelling between two printing polymer materials. The hygroscopic behavior on the interfaced structure was modeled with COMSOL Multiphysics. The surface and electrical properties of the fabricated three-dimensional patterns were analyzed and characterized.

This paper deals with the early development of the Anuloid, an innovative disk-shaped VTOL aircraft. The Anuloid concept is based on the following three main features: the use of a ducted fan powered by a turboshaft for the lift production to take-off and fly; the Coanda effect that is developed through the circular internal duct and the bottom portion of the aircraft to provide further lift and control capabilities; the adoption of a system of ducted fixed and swiveling radial and circumferential vanes for the anti-torque mechanism and the flight control. The early studies have been focused on the CFD analysis of the Coanda effect and of the control vanes; the flyability analysis of the aircraft in terms of static performances and static and dynamic stability; the preliminary structural design of the aircraft. The results show that the Coanda effect is stable in most of the flight phases, vertical flight has satisfactory flyability qualities, whereas horizontal flight shows dynamic instability, requiring the development of an automatic control system.

Recently, studies have been carried out to develop unmanned Micro Air Vehicles(MAVs) that can search and monitor inside buildings during urban warfare or rescue operations in hazardous environments. However, existing fixed-wing and rotary-wing MAVs cannot travel at extremely low or high speeds, hover in place, or change directions instantly. This has lead researches to search for other flight methods that could overcome those drawbacks. Insect flight principles and its applications to MAVs are being studied as an alternative flight method. To take flight, insects flap and rotate their wings. These wing motions allow for high maneuverability flight such as hovering, vertical take off and landing, and quick acceleration and deceleration. This paper proposes a method for designing a mechanism that reproduces hovering insect flight, the basis for all other forms of insect flight. The design of a mechanism that can reproduce the motion that causes maximum lift is proposed, the required specifications are calculated, and a method for reproducing hovering insect flight with a single motor is presented. Also, feasibility of the design was confirmed by simulation.

This paper is intended to provide experimental data for the design of the small VAWT(vertical axis wind turbine). Three types(lift, drag, and hybrid) of the blade of VAWT are tested with digital wind tunnel in this study. From the test, the relation of power coefficient and tip speed ratio for the blades are evaluated and compared each other depending on the blade type. Especially, the characteristics of hybrid blade which is shown to be expanded in the market without any logical data is proposed in the relation of power coefficient and tip speed ratio. It is shown that the hybrid blade can be used to make higher starting torque with trade off of degradation of power coefficient.
